    Emily Hurth. Becoming a Foster Parent and Teaching Others How to Grieve.

    I am so grateful to meet, know and interview a great human being. She gives selflessly to others and wants to make a difference in the community.  Listen as Fort Wayne native talks about boundaries and work-life balance, licensed social work, teaching a course in grief (not only in death but in life changes) and teaching a course about hospitalized children at U of I, the role of a Child-Life Specialist, displaying a passion for pediatric health care, mentoring professionally and leaving a legacy through foster parenting. She has the ability to overlook the to do list in order to prioritize mothering and teaching others. A real gift. Are you looking for a first-person testimony of your business, product or service?

    Andrew & Emily Harrington. Meeting the Pope and McDonalds.

    My husband and I recount the highs, lows, ups, downs and incredible core memories from our two week family vacation in Italy.  Listen as Andrew comes back to the studio after a brief hiatus to talk about why my phone keeps going off, why hasn't been on an episode in a while, helping a friend, the flight, Venice, Sorrento, Rome and meeting Pope Leo, pasta, pizza, gelato and McDonalds and everything that went right and the few flubs that come with every vacation.

    Anthony Pearson. Responding to Trauma and Teaching an Old Dog New Tricks, Part 1.

    This sweet, soft spoken gentle man, joins me on the podcast to talk about his road to and from the air force. The good, the bad and the ugly.   Listen as this South Carolina country kid talks about the decision to go into the military, childhood and police officer parents, performing/entertaining in the military, wheelchair basketball and adaptive sports, shoe sales, gig musicianship, healing through music, the pivot to dog training, St. Joe, The Blend Spot and Crones. I couldn't believe the many layers to Anthony. The more he talked, the more I discovered about this former military man turned dog trainer.  Are you looking for a first-person testimony of your business, product or service?

    Todd Black. Bullied and Comically Accurate.

    What a great time talking to this silly, light-hearted science buff and comic lover.   Listen as this St. Joe born and raised standout talks about his unorthodox hairdo and the regime for maintaining his Weird Al Yankovic/Slash-like locks, comic books, Comic-Con, Conjunction Junction, singing (surprise song!), self-publishing, freelance writing, video games and self-deprecating humor. Todd was game for anything and a force of energy and smarts. Are you looking for a first-person testimony of your business, product or service? Let HyperLocal(s) help.

    Lisa Rector. Matching Energy and Being a Girls' Girl.

    She knew what would be interesting to talk about and kept me on track, a real pro in so, so many ways. Everyone's cheerleader and a respecter of time and energy, Lisa is a 10/10 human.  Listen as this Ohio-born girl talks briefly about her normal childhood before diving deep into the real estate industry in town, taking the real estate tests, competing against your peers and office mates, open houses, setting boundaries with your time, motherhood, being a wife to a firefighter, philanthropy and winning the Don Moyer Boys & Girls Club Dancing With the Stars event by an all-time margin! So easy to be around and talk to. The time flew by with Lisa. Are you looking for a first-person testimony of your business, product or service? Let HyperLocal(s) help.

    Ashlee Rhodes. Custard Cup and the School Mascot.

    Warm and sweet, open and vulnerable, the beyond likeable, Ashlee came to share about her personal and notable professional life.  Listen as this Urbana-raised girl talks about being the high school mascot, having an odd childhood, coming out and being rejected, online dating, That's What She Said stories, losing a dog and a brother, divorcing a partner, healing, managing Jarling's Custard Cup and what the nostalgia means to our community. What a gift Ashlee is to C-U. After a hell of a 2025, I hope 2026 brings levity and light. Are you looking for a first-person testimony of your business, product or service? Let HyperLocal(s) help.

    (Ron)ald Baker. Cauliflower Ear and Ringworm.

    Many sports functions overlap in the realm of boy raising. Ron is co-raising three busy boys as well as working a full-time career, coaching and advocating for often overlooked populations in our community.   Listen as this Decatur-born gentleman talks about meeting his future wife, picking on peers, wrestling, cutting weight, being a nurse anesthetist, running for the local school board and why attending practices with your kids is important.

    Jaclyn Loewenstein. The Drama Queen and Theater Kids Auditioning.

    For about a year my son and I have been in her orbit enrolling and participating in theater-based classes. Her passion and knowledge for our local fine arts radiates from her high-energy personality.  Listen as this Chicago area born and raised city girl talks technical difficulties, the Penguin Project, practice vs. innate talent, auditioning, majoring in "anything other than drama,"  raising daughters within the arts, NYC and Broadway, internships, directing and casting, marriage, innovative online teaching during COVID, the Champaign fine arts scene and her theater programming business, Class Act. What a pleasure to meet someone so dedicated to their art and the art of our youth! Are you looking for a first-person testimony of your business, product or service? Let HyperLocal(s) help.
